for a long time i've wanted to create a little coffee cart for in my home. i finally made my dream coffee cart into a reality a couple years ago & don't know why i never really shared it. it's super adorable and can be moved around to any part of the house since it has wheels (which is nice because i like to rearrange and sometimes have to for babyproofing reasons).

Since we’ve passed a year of life for our sweet baby boy Milo, I thought it might be a good idea to finally share his birth story. (Better late than never, right?) I’ve seen many women share their beautiful birth stories with the world and I’d like to do the same.

i've noticed more and more bloggers and instagrammers being super duper real with their followers and dishing on the behind the scenes stuff when it comes to motherhood and life in general and i am absolutely loving it. obviously everything you see on social media isn't always as perfect as it seems and real life is so much more raw and messy and flawed.

something i've been wanting for our home for a little while now is a desk. recently i've been even more anxious to get one in hopes that it will boost my productivity and allow me to give my best effort at blogging again. i had my eye on a west elm desk and we were purging our garage, so what better way to add some moolah to our desk fund than to sell our crap on facebook marketplace?

one thing i've learned since becoming a mom is that like 99% of the time, it's best to just go with your gut. do what feels right to you and don't worry about what everyone else is doing quite so much.

I've always thought milk bath photos were beautiful and when I was pregnant, I made it a point to make sure I got some taken for myself (you can look at those here if you want). I thought it would be really fun and easy to do them with Milo too so once he was able to sit up on his own, I decided it was time to do a little photo shoot.

Sometimes with a baby you just have to get ya booty out of the house. My awesome astoria mama friend wanted to take some photos of some clothes she recently received and I jump at any chance I get to go out and about and do something fun during the day, so we made a plan to head downtown yesterday.
